Not sure what to say?

We still miss the King of Hearts.

Like my sister, Dana, I have not had contact since No. 41st Street in Arlington, but I enjoy seeing Rae in Mom's wedding pictures. I am living in Gloucester now, and thus the Daily Press!! Hope Rae is doing well, and my condolences to the entire family

To the family:I express my deep condolences to you. In the spirit of the Apostle Paul, we read: "For all things I have the strength by virtue of him who imparts power to me." Philipians 4:13

My deepest sympathies to the family. Although I knew Mr. Anthony in his later years he left an imprint on me because of his caring kind ways and quick joke. I know his life has made an impact on many. May he rest in peace.

We miss him so much,

Our deepest sympathies on your great loss. Although we have not seen you since the 1960's in Arlington, VA, I think of you often and have looked at your pictures often in my mother's photo album. My mother, Jane Irene Kessler Barclift, passed away on April 25, 2008. She was 89 years old and suffered with Alzheimers. She was able to live at home until the last year of her life, and she often relayed her fond childhood memories with me. You were dear friends to her. Thank you for being...

Rae, it saddens me so much to read that you have lost your beloved Joe. Joe was one of the first people I met when I first entered the work world. He was the sweetest and kindest man I have ever met. He had such a great sense of humor. I loved him and you. Because later I met you, my mentor and my life changed forever. I consider you and Joe has one of my angels who set me on the right path. I will never forget him Rae. My prayers are with you and your family.
